A 3D‐bioprinted platform with stem cells activates “nerve‐bone” signaling by enabling the spatiotemporal delivery of Nell‐1. This activation enhances neurovascular and bone regeneration through the CYFIP1 cascade. In rat calvarial defects, the platform doubled bone regeneration and nerve repair and tripled vascular density, resulting in superior ...

Effect of Different Surface Treatments on Resistance to Abrasive Wear of AISI 4140 Steel
This study investigates how different surface treatments affect resistance to abrasive wear of AISI 4140 Steel. The wear rate was significantly higher in samples subjected to conventional treatments than in samples coated using the HVOF process, demonstrating the superior efficiency of coatings applied by thermal spraying in mitigating abrasive wear ...

Cementum, the mineralized tissue covering all mammalian tooth roots, helps maintain tooth stability, but its internal organization is still poorly understood. In this study, we combine quantitative histologial methods to map the regional distributions of collagen fibers and proteoglycan‐rich matrix layers in porcine cementum.

What Outcomes Matter in Vital Pulp Therapy? Current Concepts and Challenges
ABSTRACT Vital pulp therapy (VPT) has re‐emerged as a practical and biologically sound alternative for managing deep caries and carious pulp exposures. Although its clinical use is now widespread, the outcomes used to judge the success of VPT remain inconsistent and often difficult to compare across studies.
